According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "The present invention describes a Hyperledger Fabric-enabled product authentication ecosystem designed to combat counterfeit products and enhance supply chain integrity. By leveraging permissioned blockchain technology, the ecosystem meticulously records the entire lifecycle of products on a distributed ledger maintained by a Hyperledger Fabric network infrastructure with peer nodes comprising computing devices. A product digital identity module generates unique identifiers encoded in QR codes physically affixed to products using printing hardware. A chaincode layer comprising smart contracts automates product registration, ownership transfers with geolocation from GPS-enabled devices and environmental data from IoT sensors, verification, and compliance checks. A consumer verification interface with mobile application and QR code scanner module utilizing device camera hardware enables consumers to authenticate products at the point of purchase. A private data collection module provides enterprise-grade privacy through selective data disclosure. The ecosystem revolutionizes supply chain management by eliminating counterfeit products and fostering trust, accountability, and operational excellence through comprehensive hardware-software integration."
